ISRO reschedules Proba-3 launch after detecting 'anomaly'

NEW DELHI [Maha Media]: The ISRO has rescheduled the launch of PSLV-C59 to Thursday due to an "anomaly" detected in the PROBA-3 spacecraft, the agency announced on Wednesday, minutes before the scheduled launch.

The Bengaluru-headquartered space agency had originally planned the launch at 4.08 pm on Wednesday from the spaceport here.

"Due to an anomaly detected in PROBA-3 spacecraft PSLV-C59/PROBA-3 launch rescheduled to tomorrow at 16:12 hours," the space agency said in an update minutes ahead of the lift-off.

The satellites will study the Sun’s Corona, its surrounding atmosphere, space weather and solar wind.
